Eat, Drink, Shop and Exercise near the New Us Embassy
The new Embassy of the United States in London has moved to 33 Nine Elms Lane, bringing with it more than 700 diplomatic staff and 1000 visitors a day. Battersea Power Station welcomes the Embassy staff and their visitors to the neighbourhood: we’re just a short stroll away down Nine Elms Lane, as Google reveals.
Why not drop in for lunch, or after work? Circus West, the first phase of Battersea Power Station’s redevelopment, is now open and is without exaggeration the best place to eat out or go for a drink within easy reach of the Embassy. At Circus West you will find:

Fiume

While you’re here you could also pick up anything from a rare Japanese whisky to a pint of milk at The Battersea General Store, drop in for a New York style spin session with a London twist at Boom Cycle, or look in at the Design Store for a Power Station memento.
There’s lots more to come at Circus West, and even more in the future phases of Battersea Power Station, arriving in the next few years. The new US Embassy will have a ringside seat as London’s newest and most exciting town centre appears.
